For ASCII hosts, after the initial connection, some messages are sent as primitive teletype lines of text with only a Linefeed character (ASCII 10) ending each line.
Generally, the ASCII protocols do not reposition the cursor at the start of the line, requiring a Carriage Return (ASCII 13) to position to the start of the line. This is the default.

Checked |
